The time of my life!

Hi there,

I recently got back from Australia after working as an au pair. I would
first like to thank you for all your help in getting to Australia because it
was the best thing I've ever done and I had the time of my life!

Au Pair In Australia

Hi!

The weather here is definitely all I had hoped for...sunny and beautiful!  Although I do miss the snow a bit.

Australia is amazing!  I love it here!  I've met so many wonderful people and made a few good friends, including 2 au pairs from Scotland and Norway!  I love being back in the country with animals everywhere!  I'll admit that some of the slang and aussie terms where a bit confusing at first.  Like a ute is a truck and a pushie is a bicycle and a chook is a chicken :P  But I think I've almost got them all figured out.  I start playing touch rugby today for one of the local teams which should be very exciting and a great way to meet new people.  The family and all their friends have been amazingly kind in helping to introduce me to new people and taking me to see new things, like camp drafting, which was absolutely amazing!

Here are a couple of pictures.  Thanks so much for all your help!  I couldn't have done it without you all!

Finland Camps

Hi there!

I've made it to Finland and I'm almost done my first two week camp here!  It has been going very well so far, the accommodation is very nice and the food is good.  We get fed many times a day so it really saves a lot of spending money because you do not have to buy any food or snacks.  The other teachers are from England, Ireland, Kenya and Russia.  The teaching job is a lot of work but also a lot of fun, the kids are very energetic and happy to be at camp.

Thanks for letting me know about these camps, I look forward to the rest of my summer here!
